JUDOR WHITAK Eli, in New.Orleans,
has refused to grant Retui-nipg
Board Anderson a now trial, an1ihlias
sentonced him to two years in the
penitentiary. Now for a fresh howl
from the "visiting statesmen."
HoAR, BUnNSIDE, Matthows, Cono
ver and Patterson were the only
Republicans who voted to confirm
Northrop as district attorney.
Edmunds made a violent speech
against hin and was intensely dis
gusted with the result.
THE ATTEMPT to fire Mr. Grigsby's
store at Ridgeway is an unusual
event for Fairfield. Heretoforo the
county has been peculiarly exempt
from crimes of a serious naturo; and
the first out-cropping of this spirit
should bo mot with a determination
to repress it immediately. A re.
ward should be offered for the
arrest of the miscreant, and every
effort made to bring him to justice.
Fairflold cannot;afford to bo the
theatre of such crimes as have
harassed some of our sister coun
ties.
Future Punishment.
The question "Is there a Hell ?"
has been agitating the religious
circles of the North and of Great
Britain for some time. Many of
the leading divines are by the cars.
Beecher disbelieves in Hell while
Talmage fancies ho can almost
smell the brimstone. The Korth
American Review his takon the
mattor up, and publishes the opin
ions of quito an array of learned
theologians of all shados of belief.
Dr. Porter of Yale Collego was first
invited to make known his viewp.
These were shown to Mr. Frothing
hAm who coninented on thom 'and
gave his own interpretation of the
doctrine. They were handed alko to
Vicar General Thomas S. Prester,
who gave the view of the Catholic
church, and to Dr. Bellows, who
gave his own rather than a denomi
national aspect of the doctrine, and
to Dr. WV. R. Williams, Baptist, and
Dr. Thomas J1. Sawyer, Universalist,
each of whom presented not .only
his own views, but those of his
own denomination also. Dr. Por
ter then reviewed his critics. He
believes in future punishment, but
does not insist on a bed of "burning
marl" and brimstone. The views of
the other dlivincs are thns given:-.
Mr. Fr'othingham looks upon
the Bible as simply a book--a
literary phenomenon.-to be read
exitically, judiciously, intelligently,
as other writings are readl. And
viewed in this light, a entence ljke
"Depart from me, ye cursed, intQ
everlastin*g fire, prepared for.,i
devil, and his anigels,~ dorives no
authority from its position .in, a
New Testament writing, or fron' its
beimg put into the month of Jesus.

os' ona concernmg
which are certainly tobeb16i
there is a Hell, and second, that the
spirits and souls condepned are in
eternal' suffering. The doctor sus
tains those propositions-or rather
the Church's belief in themn-by
appeals to the Athianasian creed,
to the Fifth General Couicil, wh1l4
cQndonned the dodtrine of. irIgen
and. other early fathers - that the
punishnent . of the -wicAqd was
temporary ; to the Fouth Latoran
Council which reaffrmed:: the
church's faith in eternal puiehment
as a dogia, and to Bonedict XIL,
whose "Conititutions" define the
dogia more explicitly. Dr. Pres
ton cites the traditions of the church
also as being of the same generq]1
tenor. The church also teach6s
that there are deadly sins for which
ihere can be no fnrgivencss after'
this life, and if there be no plane
for pardon then the punishment for
such sins must be without dud.
Dr. Bellows says the Unitarians
believo in eternal punishment in the
only sense in which President
Porter seems to believe in it-i. e.,9
in punishment limited by no boma
dary in time or eternity beyond
which it cannot extend ; in punish
mOnt that will last as long as sin
lasts, and will bo eternal if sin is
eternal, and that the iore event of
death and a change in our spirit's
vestur() will not alter our moral and
spiritual conditions or change the
present dispositions of a holy moral
Sovereign and kind Father toward
His subjects and children.
Dr. Williamins, on behalf of the
Baptists, argues from the fact that
ir an is redeemed by Christ only, and
that that no provision has been
made, so far as we have any indica
tion in Scripture or in the moral
government of God, for the redemp
tion of fiends and demon4, that
punishmlent must be eternal.
Ncither mian nor devils can repentI
of thomselves without divine help,
and when such help is refused or is
not given they must continue in sin
and hence in punishment eternal.
In regard to the sentimental theory
Dr. Williams shows that, though
Christ wept over Jerusalem and
prophesied its utter overflow He
did not avoi t that ruin. The tears
did not avert the wasting and the
)lsting by tihe avenger when
pitilessly repelled as the Healer.
The Doctor traces the historical
associations of the words "damna
tion" "condemnation," "judgment,"
and shows that the prophecies aw
far back as Enoch, before the
Delugo, believed in the doctrine of
eternal punishinnnt for sin.
Dr. Satwyor, the Universalist, re
joices that the fire and brimstone
hell is now seldom preached, and.
says that old grounds of reason on
which the doctrine of endless pu:
ishment was formerly made to, rest
have been laid aside and new,
though not better, ones invented.,
Speaking for himself and his 49
nomination, ho says they recognize
tbe ovil of sin, but believe that it is
an evil inecdental to the develop
ment of free moral power's andc
relatively' transient in its nature,
and is ulti utely to be overcome
and whoully eliminated -from the
universe of God by thoso retributive

Wbile the doctcos , are thus
differing, blaspheming Bob Inger
soll ro~mns over the land like a
roaring lion, devouring Christianity,
Hotll, Brimustone, Fire and all. In

salvation is a cheat and a fraud, and
